Federal Judge Dismisses Criminal Complaint Against Former FBI Officials in Hunter Biden Case

A federal judge on Monday dismissed a criminal complaint against two former FBI officials accused of lying to Congress regarding their knowledge of the investigation into a laptop reportedly tied to Hunter Biden. U.S. Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui, in a scathing ruling, cited the 'weaponization' of President Donald Trump's Justice Department just before the midterm elections. The charges against Nikki Floris and Bradley Benavides were dismissed, noting that a D.C. federal grand jury had not indicted the pair.
